• Morocco Two (1986)

• The Last Museum (1986)
  A delightful comic novel by Brion Gysin, the close associate of William S. Burroughs. The scene is the Beat Hotel Bardo in Paris, France, in the sixties, run by Madame Fachou, the tiny, blue-rinse landlady who answers to invisible Tibetan landlords, causing one to suppose that the "Bardo" part comes from the Tibetan Book of the Dead. A cult favorite in France and Great Britain.

• Stories (1984)

• Brion Gysin: The October Gallery, March 12--April 4, 1981 (GA discussion papers) (1981)

• Roller Poems (1977)

• Lord I Am Not (1976)

• Brion Gysin Let Mice In (1973)

• The Process (1969)
  The Process has the dazzling impact of a drug-inspired dream and, since its publication more than thirty years ago, has established itself as a classic of twentieth century modernism.
  
  Ulys O. Hanson, an African-American professor of the History of Slavery, who is in North Africa on a mysterious foundation grant, sets off across the Sahara on a series of wild adventures. He first meets Hamid, a mad Moroccan who turns him on, takes him over and teaches him to pass as a Moor. Mya, the richest woman in creation, and her seventh husband, the hereditary Bishop of the Farout Islands, also cross his path with their plans to steal the Sahara and make the stoned professor the puppet Emperor of Africa. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
